Female on low foliage along tributary stream through original forest, at small clearing beside trail crossing, 1450m.The paired, diamond-shaped spots on the vertex of the head and the broad antehumeral stripes, widening anteriorly, appear to be distinctive.Our ID as Anisopleura lestoides is provisional and partly by default, since no photo or description is available to us. G.S.Vick (1989) lists only two Anisopleura spp. among Nepal's Odonata: A. comes and A. lestoides, but A. subplatystyla was subsequently recorded by Clausnitzer & Wesche (1996). A comes seems to be excluded on the basis of the description in Handbook on Common Indian Dragonflies (T.R. Mitra, 2006) and a separate candidate species for A. subplatystyla has been photographed.
